Wreath-laying ceremony

A wreath-laying ceremony is planned for Youth Day, 16 June 2013, to commemorate the victims of the the Westdene bus disaster of 1985 . We encourage everyone touched by the disaster to attend the ceremony to commemorate the 42 children who lost their lives on March 27, 1985. The proceedings will be held at the Westdene dam and should be concluded within an hour. A light breakfast will be served. The function will be attended by the executive mayor and Mr. Ahmed Kathrada. Flowers will be provided for those who would like to take part in the wreath-laying and a small breakfast will be provided. The programme can be downloaded here.
